13 Not sure. I've never thought to wonder what it is actually called! The
14 drop down menu which holds all the apps along with "most used
15 Applications", "All Applications", "Actions" sections in it.

24 Well this really is nuts - they're back! I was certain all the KDE apps
25 had vanished when I first started posting various places on friday.
26 Yesterday I was scratching my head thinking I'd lost my memory when the
27 unused kde apps were back. Today, I return from work (having accessed via
28 ssh again) and not only are they all back but so are the file
29 associations. The most bizarre is rxvt - it has regained its arguments in
30 kmenuedit. At least the kde apps were either there or not whereas rxvt
31 has been "there a bit".
32
33 Anyway, can you confirm it is kicker I'm describing or not please? While
34 it's working I'd like to understand what the settings should be lest it
35 happen again.
36
37 TIA
